Has anyone ever tried to repaint the Attitude Era Vince's mouth to make it less white?
I swear that massive white mouth hole is why the head sculpt frustrates me so much. They didn't just make his teeth white, they made his entire mouth white and it looks off.

What's a good straight swap for a Johnny Gargano Elite? I'm tempted to buy his basic and just straight headswap it for someone, I feel like Daniel Bryan is the best but are there any more that could work.
Also any good ideas for a Adam Rose body without too much work, I might just learn how to paint it black and maybe put someone's head on there.

Since Gargano is shredded right now, Finn Balor is another option for him. For Adam Rose, you can make an AEW Trent with it.

Does anyone know what top would fit Elite 76 Braun Strowman? I like the headsculpt on it much better than the Top Picks one, but hate that it doesn't come with a shirt.

The only real option would probably be an old Big Show tee. You could remove the logo and cut it into a tank. The scan on the E76 is insanely good. Got mine a few days ago.

Can Elite 30 Batista biker shorts be swapped with Elite Lashley to give him that look? Do they have the same peg?

Does anyone have any ideas on a head to use for Jeff Jarrett? I'm going to a late WWF look. I've thought about using the Jakks Matt Morgan head as a fill in.

Might try to get another one to headswap with an old basic if so pretty sure he did at least once when he returned with short hair although the attire he wore when teaming with Miz was very similar

To those who swap torsos, what am I doing wrong? I've been finding it very difficult most of the time to have the seams of torso shut flush. Is it a case of me having to use a clamp going forward? Or is there more to it like sanding?
Any info would be great.

I too have issues with torsos. I don't think you can be perfect. You're basically removing the factory seal/glue when you heat it. So technically there is a microscopic section of figure missing when you put it together again. And some people who use an xacto knife, etc to open the seam are taking even more "body" away. I've switched to slicing the torso at the waist. Yes, that means I have to glue a torso onto the new waist which means it can't turn, but I'm fine with that as I don't have to touch the torso at all.

That being said, reassembling a torso that has no gap is possible. Lots of people here can do it for example. I've also done it with a few torso just through dumb luck. I assume my issue is to just keep practicing, just wondering if there's any tips and/or tricks.

@zombieapocalypse is the king of torso swapping. I dont even bother any more. Everything I need goes to him.

You would be better off painting the shorts on, but you could also use an E23 HHH, which does have ball jointed hips. Though, that would require some painting or removal of the logos.
